Suffragists Decide Neutral Policy on Candidates at Atlantic City
At the National American Woman Suffrage Association convention in Atlantic City, leaders including Mrs. Carria Chapman Catt and Dr. Anna Howard Shaw uphold a neutral stance toward U S presidential candidates. The group votes to pursue both national and state legislation, rejecting proposals to narrow effort to only national or only state efforts. The decision, urged by Shaw and supported by many speakers from multiple states, emphasizes continuing the founders' policy of broad suffrage advocacy.
